Review of Chef Flynn (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 20 Nov 2018

Chef Flynn seems more suited for an hour-long show on the Food Network…

Review of Burning (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 14 Nov 2018

The second-half of Burning is allegorical and intentionally obtuse. It’s intriguing, even…

Review of Burning (2018)

Review of In Search of Greatness (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 31 Oct 2018

Obviously, sports fans will get the most out of In Search of Greatness. But there are self-help tropes for everyone…

Review of Garry Winogrand: All Things Are Photographable (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 29 Oct 2018

He never gave up, never stopped shooting. It was a well-lived life because he apparently discovered that it mattered after all…

Review of 306 Hollywood (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Oct 2018

At the risk of being indelicate, Grandma's life - well-lived but ordinary - doesn't make for a very compelling documentary…

Review of Lizzie (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 19 Sep 2018

Directed with restraint by Craig William Macneill, Lizzie never quite gets to what made Lizzie Borden tick, but it’s possible no film ever…

Review of Kusama: Infinity (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 11 Sep 2018

A fascinating guide to its subject and her work, but the emotional wall Kusama lives behind remains unbroken. She is a loner and a mystery…

Review of Borg vs McEnroe (2017)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 Aug 2018

McEnroe, Faraut asserts, was a man who played on the edge of his senses. His film brings that home…

Review of John McEnroe: In the Realm of Perfection (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 28 Aug 2018

An invaluable piece of sports history, with 16mm images by de Kermadec that are succulently detailed…

Review of We the Animals (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 22 Aug 2018

Adapted from Justin Torres’ debut novel from 2011, Zagar’s bravura direction, with a visual style by cinematographer Zak Mulligan, is lyrical…

Review of Minding the Gap (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 14 Aug 2018

A layered, complex portrait of a group of broken young men (and one broken young woman) whose prospects in the seemingly dead-end town of Rockford,…

Review of Far From The Tree (2017)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Aug 2018

There is much to think about in Far From the Tree, a worthy and at times tender film…

Review of Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA (2017)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 25 Jul 2018

Stephen Nomura Schible's documentary, Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA is not only a portrait of a great artist, but a sensitive and engrossing depiction…

Review of Poor Boy (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 19 Jul 2018

What starts out as a bottom-feeder noir a la “Breaking Bad” or “Hell or High Water” transitions into scattershot ambitions of being…

Review of Ava (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 12 Jul 2018

In watching Ava, a visually inviting and sharp portrait of teenage life in Iran, one must admire how writer-director Sadaf Foroughi was able…

Review of Eating Animals (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 26 Jun 2018

Word of warning: Don’t go to the theater with a full stomach…

Review of Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 26 Jun 2018

Escape means a roller-coaster finish, and with this delightful sequence achieved without the aid of computer effects, this “Ant-Man” entry…

Review of Nossa Chape (2018)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 13 Jun 2018

The film is an excellent reminder of how important soccer is globally. It’s more than a sport…

Review of Scarlet Diva (2000)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 May 2018

A really bravura piece of filmmaking and a brave central performance…
